                        3. BLADES AND ATTACHMENTS  Honda HRM21 mulching mowers are factory-equipped with a low-lift blade  and mower deck cover designed to cut grass clippings and fallen leaves into  fine particles that will fall through the turf and decompose quickly. This returns  nutrients to the soil and reduces the need for raking, bagging, and disposal.  A side-discharge kit and a grass bag kit are available as optional equipment.  Side-discharging mowing, or bagging, should be considered where grass has  grown t

                        4. CONTROLS  FUEL VALVE  The fuel valve opens and closes the  connection between the fuel tank and  the carburetor.  The fuel valve must be in the ON  position for the engine to run.  When the mower is not in use, turn the  fuel valve to the OFF position to  prevent the possibility of carburetor  flooding, and to reduce the possibility  of fuel leakage.  [AWARNING 1  Gasoline is extreme-  ly flammable, and gasoline vapor can  explode. Turn the fuel valve to the OFF  position when the mower is no

Operating the  mower with a damaged or loose side-  discharge adapter will increase risk of  injury from objects thrown by the  blade.
